GDG- RE: Guild Press vs Cornell

[Tom Gilbert]

When I am reading/studying and want to check an OR reference, I click on my Cornell icon on my desktop and go right to the volume indicated .. I can get there pretty fast via my cable connection .. the CD seems to take me a bit longer, but that is probably because I don't use it enough .. I guess it's a matter of preference .. CD search engine is very good, although I have on occasion done a fairly quick search using Cornell .. Tom Gilbert

Bruce,

Like many of us I have the Guild Press but have used the Cornell site.
Anthony is right - the CD-Rom's search capabilities are much more powerful.
Not sure why the COrnell is not better but doing simple name searches, for
instance, seems to give the COrnell site problems while the Guild disc
handles them easily.
